About Erlebniswelt tirica
Erlebniswelt TIRICA is a small animal park at Rehfelde in Brandenburg, run as a registered non-profit association rather than a municipal zoo - it receives no public funding, which it says is why its admission cannot be lower. It is built around close contact with the animals: alpaca trekking, walk-in enclosures, a children's area, guest rooms and a kitchen.
Residents include alpacas, ring-tailed lemurs, kangaroos, rabbits and a group of Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs. The season runs from 1 May until the autumn weather turns, and the park holds volunteer days where helpers earn free entry.
Parking is available on-site for visitors. It is important to check if there are any fees associated with parking, as this can vary. For the best experience, arrive early to secure a good spot, especially on weekends or during special events.
